Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Episode 528: Siege (4)
Suraitan, Heine, and Pilte need to be prepared to head to the wall first, so they won't be able to make it anytime soon... But Nil and I are busy fighting the vanguard.
I don't have enough health to fight these guys here, and I just want to ignore them and break through all at once.....
Master! Piltee!
With that, Nil spun her hand into her hip bag and screamed as she pulled out the crochet thread.
There is only one use for using hoe thread in this situation. To climb the wall. And the meaning of the word "Piltee" is to let Piltee climb first and make a footstep from the top.
Currently, to avoid confrontation, there are no attacks coming from the wall, but there are also archers, magicians, and people with some melee weapons on the wall. That's quite a number.
Is it okay to let Piltee go alone?... I'm going to be lost in judgment, but I decided that Nil, who has worked so hard to polish each other, could do it with Piltee. You'll be able to trust me much more than I've judged you.
"Piltee! Come on!"
Yes!
When I turn my back and shout briefly, Pilate runs from behind with all his might.
Fuck, fuck!
Pilate's footsteps are approaching.
Six meters... three meters... now!
Grrrr!!
"Guuu!"
Just before Pilte got to me, I kicked the big shield in front of me, made a momentary gap, and looked back.
Holding the sword in your left hand and holding your right hand down, Pilté puts his right foot on it.
Gather your divine powers on your right arm and throw the Pilté towards the wall as you throw the ball as you wish, at a time when the weight of the Pilté is all on your right hand.
Shortly before the Pilté jumped up, Nil threw the reed thread out of the hip bag into the air, and the jumping Pilté caught it and flew toward the wall.
I threw it with a force close to my power, so it would definitely reach the wall first. It just doesn't get to the top of the wall. That's why Nil's staple yarn works.
However, the enemy cannot leave Piltet alone to climb the wall. I could shoot arrows and magic from below and above.
We have to do something about the arrows and magic that will keep shooting for the time it takes for Piltee to climb the 10-metre wall.
If you throw the piltere and hang the rivet thread on the top of the outer wall, it should be about 5 meters from the top. In other words, Pilte has to climb about five meters using a yarn.
Attacks from below should only be arrows and magic. When that happens, it will emit directly upwards, so the amount of gravity will offset the momentum, and when it reaches Piltee, the power will drop more or less. With that in mind, we should be able to defend ourselves against attacks from below.
On the other hand, the attack from the top adds power to the gravity, so you need a solid defense.
"Heine! We need defense on top of the piltee!" I'll take care of it downstairs! "
Roger that!
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
As soon as Pilté reaches the wall, the reed thread catches onto the top of the wall, and Pilté grounds his feet to the wall and prepares himself.
I'll let you use any magic!!
Gaggin!
As soon as I started drawing the magic circle to protect Piltee, the men in front of me attacked me.
However, just as the opponent doesn't want me to use magic, Nil moves so that my magic can be activated safely.
"I won't let you touch my master with one finger!"
Nil's shield flashed heavily at the tip of the spear that a man pushed out.
"Cheeky bitch! You're dying!"
Haa!
Gaggin!
While Nil protects me, I hurry to draw a magic circle.
"Don't let him climb the wall!!"
If you say Piltee...
I can see the people directly below react immediately and start preparing to emit arrows and magic.
"I won't let you!!"
Tan!
Za, za, za, za, za, za!
”” ”” ”Guaaaaa!” ”
Suratan, who was rampaging near the wall, slashed into a group trying to target Piltee. I wasn't able to stop everyone, but it gave me plenty of time.
Zuga, zuga, zuga!
Meanwhile, I drew my magic circle and activated my magic.
My magic creates a horizontal stone wall beneath the Pilate. We built the Walllock from the stone walls.
Just as the Walllock they created during the first assault was broken, it won't keep them from attacking forever, but that should be enough for a temporary defense. In addition, it can also serve as a scaffolding for Pilte. Moreover, if it is destroyed by an attack from below, the rubble will fall directly beneath it. Rather than two birds by one stone, three birds.
Did you read my intentions? Pilte immediately removes the reed thread from the wall and descends once upon a wall lock.
The claws hooked to the edge of the wall that was being built were only hanging by the weight of one Piltee, and if the people on top tried to remove them, they would be easily removed.
Just hook the claws on the edge of the wall, they fall off before climbing all the way up and end up being pierced by the weapons of the people below. Before that happened, I removed my claws once.
"Shoot! Don't let him climb!"
The people waiting at the top of the wall look down from the edge of the wall and emit arrows and magic.
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!
Piltee runs and jumps over the wall lock I made to avoid the arrows and magic coming down from above.
Zuga, zuga, zuga!
The Walllock was destroyed by magic, but Pilte was already jumping up and throwing his claws at the wall.
Bush!!
”GUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The claws that Pilté threw were tangled between the two legs of the soldiers who were at the top of the wall. When they weighed down, the claws and the knitted threads at the men's legs.
The tip of the claw pierced the thigh of a man, tearing his skin and flesh, and splashing blood.
Even so, the power to move downward on the claws was not weakened, and finally, while the two men's legs were entangled together, they tried to pull the two men off the wall.
"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
If you're a vampire with high physical abilities, you'll be able to land safely even if you fall ten meters, but for an ordinary soldier with armor, you'll be dead. The two men cling to the wall and try their best to keep their arms and hands from falling.
From our point of view, two men are stuck to the wall, and the piltere holding the reed thread is hanging a few meters down. Thinking that just hooking the claws on the wall would immediately remove them, Piltee hung them on the wall instead of the claws. It's a pretty tedious plan, but it certainly won't be easy to drop.
As the two men clung to the wall and stopped falling, so did the Pilates below. At that time, the claw pierced into the man's thighs was eating deeper, and he was crying out in great pain, but he was desperate to endure it so that he wouldn't fall, so he couldn't do anything.
Meanwhile, Pilte moves like a pendulum from left to right, with his body diagonal to the wall, with his weight hanging on the yarn.
Fuck, fuck!
Giggle...
"GUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Without mercy, the piltere moves violently underneath, so the claws move according to the movement, and the man screams.
Fuck! Fuck!
From top to bottom, arrows and magic are emitted, but the Piltee runs quickly through the wall, making it hard to hit. The arrows and magic that are being shot down are played by Heine's intermediate dark magic, the inflicted Dark Shield, even in an orbit that is likely to hit. Unlike the Advanced Dark Magic's active Dark Shield, it can't change its shape, and although it's limited to five times, if you block a Piltere that moves around violently, you'll be able to block the granting type more reliably than if you use the active type poorly.
Heine did not prepare a granting Dark Shield in anticipation of this, but the situation matched well.
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo!
It was a pilte that continued to run along the wall from left to right, but when the direction of travel changed from side to side, it ran up against the wall and let go of the yarn.
Tan!
Just before the momentum toward the top stopped, he kicked the wall and jumped up from there, and eventually jumped as far as to exceed the upper edge of the wall.
The motion was as if Nil had occasionally shown light work.
Speaking of physical abilities alone, I knew that Pilte and Nil were not so different, and that I could do it with Pilte. However, being able to move so vividly... the vampire race really has high physical abilities... no, it's probably because of Piltee's efforts.
However, Piltee's jump is a jump by kicking up the wall, but it doesn't mean he can jump straight up. It is impossible to land on the wall because the force is applied in the direction away from the wall.
That's where the Shadow Owl came in.
Oh, my God!
Shh, shh, shh, shh!
Guah!
Shadow Owl is a stretchy and very user-friendly magic, and Heine and Pilté prepare the Shadow Owl before the fight begins, and it is always unfolding during the fight. I needed magic power to keep expanding, but unlike defensive magic, I had less magic power to maintain, so even if I kept expanding, there was no problem. That said, because it is an advanced magic, it is not a very large amount of consumption simply because it is a vampire race with a large amount of magic power. If it is a person with a small amount of magic power, the amount of consumption will be depleted immediately. Therefore, I seemed to be fighting while disarming my magic in due course, but I hadn't disarmed it since I entered the base with the farmers.
Once it was disarmed, I had to draw a complicated advanced magic circle again, and I decided that I couldn't take the time to maintain my magic.
It was a shadowclaw that Heine and Pilte used a lot, but if I had a weapon, I would be able to avoid the trouble of managing the amount of magic power remaining and drawing the magic circle... so I asked why I didn't have a weapon before.
Heine said that being unarmed meant that before the vampire race was treated as a monster and accepted as a demon race, it was wisdom to survive a long war.
The vampire race was abhorred by various races because it was a race that sucked magic from the blood of other races to save lives. Therefore, in order for the Vampire Clan to fight with their weapons, they had to build their own. No one will help us, so of course no one will make us weapons, and no one will repair us. Still, they managed to take it from the enemy.
But if you use a weapon, it will break. Definitely. It's clear that the weapons and armor in this world have durability. Then, if you're fighting with a weapon, the weapon will break somewhere, and you'll have nothing to fight with. The vampire race was an isolated race, and the loss of weapons to fight was an equal death. The idea was a Shadow Owl.
Flexible claws. For a vampire clan with a lot of magic power, it's not so difficult to maintain that magic. Even if it breaks, you can fight if you draw the magic circle again. I might have had to get used to dealing with shadow owls, but once I got used to it, I didn't need a weapon.
After all, the unification of the demons ended the war, but for the vampire race, having a weapon seemed to be recognized as some sort of shameful act. Especially, if you can only replenish magic power, it is a very long-lived vampire race, so those who are called pure-blooded species tend to hate having weapons because most of them have experienced war.
It seems that it is propagating in a conscious sense to the lower classes... That said, some thin-blooded and mixed species have such low physical abilities that they cannot fight without a weapon, so it doesn't seem that all vampire tribes have a weapon. However, for the vampire race, having a weapon seems to be taken as an acknowledgement that they are weak. Demons are all the races of power, so it becomes a factor that will be despised as it is, so those with a lot of magic power are basically unarmed and thoroughly beaten into using shadowcrows.
Naturally, Pirte, who owns Heine's mother, has been thoroughly taught by Heine how to use the shadow owl, and the way to use it is surprisingly delicate for me and Nil.
how delicate it is....
Jumping into the air, Pilte stretched out his shadow owl to the two men on the wall. Aiming at the slight gap between the armor of the two men wearing full-body armor, Shadowclaw pierced the men from the gap even though he and the opponent were moving, and dived into the gap between the two armor behind him. A total of four men. A single blow of shadow owl pierced a man with full body armor.
Suddenly, due to light work, the opponent was not able to react, and he was not familiar with the magic of shadow owls. There were various other factors, and it was relatively easy to penetrate the four of them, but that was something that could not be accomplished without the delicate magic operation of Piltee.
Moreover, Pilte jumped up with his hand out of the reed thread. In other words, he jumped up to the movement of penetrating the four men, convinced that he could do it.
He kicks up the wall and jumps up, his posture is unstable in the air, and his opponent is not standing still. Nevertheless, if you say that you can do it with confidence, I think you can see that the magic manipulation technology of Pilte is excellent.
However, Shadow Owl was only a dark magic, and I wasn't really good at fighting weapons, so it was basically a secret. This time, I can't tell you about the secret situation, so you can do this kind of thing at any time just by seeing the skill.
Grrrr!
Then, the piercing shadow owl pulled hard while entangling the men's bodies. Piltee's body is on the outside of the wall, but it moves to the top of the wall in an instant. On the contrary, the four men are pulled to the outside of the wall.
”Ngh!!”
Zzzz!
No matter how strong the power of the Piltee is from the vampire race, it doesn't have the power to pull four men at the same time and drop them outside the wall. So... instead of stabbing four people at the same time with a shadowclaw, we stabbed them, and then stabbed the other two.
Shadowclaw stretching from the right hand and shadowclaw stretching from the left hand. In both cases, there was a bead-like connection in the state of one person plus one person. In that state, if you pull one person in front of you and pull it to the outside of the wall, the man behind you will be pulled by the weight of the man in front of you by the connected shadow owl. The man in front of him pushes his legs to stop him from falling off the wall, but...
Don't! Don't!
Guu?!
The man in front of you is attracted by the weight of the man in front of you. The man in the back hits the back of the man in front of you and pushes his cornered body.
”Woahhhhhh!!”
The two people who were pushed out were thrown out of the wall and fell according to gravity.
”Shhh... ghh!”
Zzzzzz!
Pulled by the force of the free fall of the first man, the second stood on the edge of the wall holding a shadowclaw in his hand.
The second one is hoisting the first man on the wall.
But as the second man endured, the shadow fell from above.
Dong-dong!!
AH?!!
Reaching the wall, Pilté pushes the backs of the two men who had endured at the edge of the wall strongly outward. Then, I shrunk the shadow owl I was piercing and returned it to my hand.
"" "" UAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Shut up!!
In the end, four men are dropped from the wall, and Pilte reaches the wall intact.
Knock! Knock! Shh!
”Gaaa!”
While grasping it at the edge of our sight, we also slowly pushed towards the wall.
If Pilte reaches the wall, he'll do his best to pull us up somehow. At that time, you must be directly under the wall so that you can deal with it immediately.
Suratan! Wizards and archers please!
Leave it to me!!
When I shouted, the sound of the sword's horn echoed, and Sura-tan's reply was heard.
There's little to be gained by returning the Slatan to us, who was able to run back to the ranged force. Besides, I want you to get rid of the ranged attackers who are lightly armored and disoriented at Suraitan's speed.
Once inside the enemy territory, they would not be exposed to ranged attacks, but they were trained to be bandits. I don't know when they'll blow us all up. Best of all, when we try to climb the wall, we want to avoid arrows and magic flying in. For that reason, I'd like to reduce the number as much as possible while I'm downstairs.
The Archers and Magicians aren't specialists in melee combat, and it shouldn't be so hard to ravage Suraitan alone. And if Suratan attacks the rear lines, they will turn their backs on us to protect them. It won't be much of a siege, but if you disperse your forces, it'll be easier for you to break through.
All that was left was for me and Nil and Heine to move forward.
I can't use magic anymore!
"Oh! Fight with me!"
Heine activated her defensive magic to protect Pilate, so she didn't have a magic circle at hand.
Heine can only use her body and Shadow Owl. Still, there is no anxiety, and I can see the surroundings well. If you're this calm, you'll be fine.
"Heine, take the long one!" Nil and I will take care of the rest! "
Got it!!
